Hello I would like to do a pressure test but what is the best way to do it,I'm boosting at 1.2 bar now but my car doesn't seem to be faster like when I run at 1.0 bar,I have the K16/24 with upgrated actuators..
Thanks..

I think he is talking about doing a pressure test for a boost leak?

mclaren55 is infamous around these parts
The way I have done it before is basically using a clamp, a spray paint cap, and compressed air. Then after I get about 10#'s of pressure I spray soapy water and wait to see where the bubbles are appearing. This may or may not work for you.
